Finance Accountant

Job Description

Improbable is a venture builder and technology company creating and scaling businesses in Web3, blockchain, and decentralised infrastructure. We build companies from the ground up and invest in ventures shaping the next generation of the internet.

We are developing next-generation networked and decentralised systems that power digital assets, open networks, and Web3-native economies. Over the past decade, we’ve evolved into a global leader in venture building and blockchain-enabled infrastructure, enabling creators, brands, and communities to build and scale decentralised products at global scale.

At Improbable, we’re motivated by solving hard, meaningful problems, building technology that is ambitious, durable, and transformative.

We are seeking a Financial Accountant to join our Group Finance team, reporting to the Group Financial Accountant. This role sits at the heart of our close, reconciliation and control cycle, and takes full ownership of recurring deliverables across month-end, balance sheet integrity, intercompany and audit support.

You will work across a broad and technically interesting remit, including the reconciliation of digital asset balances across wallets, exchanges and custodians. You will partner with stakeholders across Finance, Operations, Strategy and the wider business to ensure our records are accurate, complete and audit-ready, and you will play an active role in improving the processes and documentation that sit behind them.

The Opportunity

Reconciliations and controls

  • Prepare and own monthly balance sheet reconciliations across assigned accounts.

  • Investigate and resolve reconciling items, escalating issues where appropriate.

  • Drive improvements to reconciliation templates, documentation and process consistency.

Digital asset reconciliations

  • Perform monthly reconciliations across wallets, exchanges, custodians, internal records and the general ledger.

  • Prepare digital asset movement schedules and supporting workpapers.

  • Investigate and resolve differences between source data and finance records.

  • Maintain robust audit evidence for digital asset balances and transactions.

  • Apply a strong technical understanding of digital asset mechanics, including custody, transfers, wallets and gas fees.

Month-end close and reporting

  • Own delivery of month-end close tasks; preparing supporting schedules and workpapers to a review-ready standard consistently and on time.

  • Maintain monthly intercompany loan schedules and reconciliations. Investigate and resolve intercompany differences.

  • Produce internal billing and revenue reconciliation schedules.

  • Prepare elimination journals as part of the consolidation process.

  • Perform P&L reviews, identifying and explaining unusual movements and variances with clear commentary.

  • Complete ONS surveys and other recurring external returns.

Audit, statutory, tax and compliance

  • Ensure finance records are complete, accurate and well organised.

  • Maintain audit-ready schedules and documentation throughout the year.

  • Provide support during statutory audits; responding to audit queries and requests directly to auditors.

Stakeholder and process support

  • Document recurring finance processes and maintain clear process notes.

  • Identify process gaps or inconsistencies and propose improvements.

  • Liaise with internal stakeholders to gather information and resolve finance queries.


Why you’re made for this


  • Part-qualified accountant (ACA / ACCA / CIMA), close to finalist level, with strong technical accounting fundamentals.

  • Practical experience across month-end close, balance sheet reconciliations and intercompany within a fast-paced environment.

  • High attention to detail and a strong commitment to accuracy, control and audit-readiness.

  • Strong Excel and Google Sheets skills, with the ability to build and improve robust reconciliation and analysis workpapers.

  • Confident communicator, able to liaise effectively with stakeholders across Finance and the wider business to resolve queries and follow issues through to resolution.

  • Comfortable working with ambiguity, shifting priorities and incomplete information, with a bias toward structure, clarity and on-time delivery.

  • Interest in (or exposure to) Web3, blockchain and digital assets is highly desirable, with a willingness to develop deep expertise in this space.

  • Exposure to NetSuite or a similar ERP, and experience supporting UK statutory audit and tax processes, would be an advantage.
